Online DDL: detect vreplication errors via vreplication_log history #16925

Description

Today, vreplication based Online DDL reads _vt.vreplication table, and uses state and message columns as indicators to errors.

However, these columns, even if there's a terminal error, can be overwritten and shadowed by later changes to vreplication state, as described in #16924.

Thankfully, _vt.vreplication_log persists all states and messages throughout the workflow's lifetime. In this PR, Online DDL ensures to search for error-indicating states/messages in _vt.vreplication_log. If found, these are picked and used by Online DDL to determine that the migration is broken, and advertised forward in _vt.schema_migrations.message.

We furthermore prepend:

  • terminal error: prefix for terminal errors in vreplication.
  • vreplication: prefix for schema_migrations error messages originating by vreplication.

LGTM! It's nice to see the _vt.vreplication_log table being put to good use ❤️

Worth making terminal error an exported const IMO. Then that can be used in the query as well: OR locate ('terminal error:', message) = 1 and in the unit test.

I've parameterized the string, using the parameter in creation and in SQL. However, in unit tests I'm still using the hard coded text because I think it makes the unit test clearer.
